Does 118 sound about right for a 12.2? Car is an A4.

Yeah you should be in the 11's even with a 2.0 60' would be my guess, thats a hell of a MPH for an A4, but then again I dont have a clue what your mods are or other portions of that 1/4 mile pass.

I agree. If you're trapping 118 in an automatic and only running 12s, you need to get some tires, suspension, or SERIOUSLY work on your launch. Most M6 cars trapping 118 are in the 11s if they can drive, and I would say most A4s trapping that fast are in the mid to low 11s if they can hook up. Your 60' should probably be in the 1.5 range, give or take for your driving.

BUT, like you said, first time out in over a year, so all it takes is some seat time and practice. Get back to the track and you'll shave that ET and 60' down in no time.

Thanks for the info, I have a +4k stall sittin but I think its way to big since I don't have a cam yet, maybe after I get something in there I'll throw in the converter.
Thanks

Its a ptc converter it's over a 4k stall I think, unsure of the STR the previous owner didnt know what it was. I kinda wanted to put it aside untill I got a cam to install it, not sure if it will be to much stall for juice no other mods.
